Deokpojin Fort, Gimpo
This is an artillery emplacement in which seven cannons are installed. There are two other artillery embankments in Deokpojin Fort, with five and three cannons, each.
The cannons are placed in niches carved into an earthen embankment, which are then covered with a thatched roof. On each of the cannons are inscriptions which record their weight, the amount of gunpowder used, and the fact that they were made in Unhyeongung Royal Residence in 1874.
A fort, called jin in Korean, was a military base where the command of a local army was stationed. The area around Ganghwado Island has been a strategic military defense location for over a millennia, as it is located at the mouth of two rivers which pass by the former capitals of the Goryeo (918-1392) and Joseon (1392-1910) dynasties. During the Joseon period, a number of forts were built on and nearby Ganghwado Island.
Deokpojin, located in Gimpo across the strait from Ganghwado, is an earthen fortification built at an unknown time during the Joseon period. This was the site of fierce battles during the Western Disturbances of 1866 and 1871, in which French and American troops, respectively, forcibly tried to make trade relations with Joseon.
Within the fort, there are three artillery emplacements in which a total of 15 canons are installed. The cannons are installed in niches carved into an earthen embankment, which are then covered with tile or thatched roofs. On each of the cannons are inscriptions which record their weight, the amount of gunpowder used, and the fact that they were made in Unhyeongung Palace in 1874.
